Community Posts, Tips & Support on Second Trimester

Says it’s safe to use when pregnant but to call dr. I’m just a bit embarrassed to ring and ask. I know it’s just precaution they HAVE to put that on the box, says to ring a dr about taking painkillers when pregnant too. I just want to know if anyone else has. X

I didn’t pass 😪 ugh who else didn’t pass ?

Can anyone tell me their experiences of having a bad stomach in 3rd trimester? I’m 37 weeks and been having watery stools (tmi I know, sorry) for about two days now and according to google, it could be a sign labour is near? Has this been the case for any of you? Also my stomach feels weird and I can’t tell if it’s ...

So I’m 33+1 and apparently I’m carrying too much fluid. I’m being sent for a Diabetes test tomorrow morning. Anyone got tips? Did anyone else have one this late?? I’m just so worried

I’m 39 weeks pregnant with our 3rd and not sure if I’m overthinking or what but if my man follows like majority all women on TikTok should I be worried ? Like he is just following them but around me he is like never on his TikTok tho … I’ve brought it up but he was like I’m just following them not commenting on ther...

I handed in my MATB1 form today, my work maternity policy states I need to send the MATB1 15 weeks before the due date, but I have just checked and it’s actually 13 weeks before the due date. Do you think this will affect anything? My appointment with my midwife was only yesterday and I didn’t realise

Hey so I’m 38 weeks and have seen from 37 weeks you can start taking primrose oil orally or vaginally, I ordered some off Amazon but reading the pot it says “Do not take if you’re pregnant” I have read that it is apparently safe from 37wks but I’m not sure if it’s worth the risk 🫠

Is anyone else massively struggling with anxiety? I’m almost 30w pregnant with my first baby and had a few scares from scans, on top of that I’m constantly overthinking how my life is changing, whether my partner still finds me attractive, will I manage to get everything ready in time and will I be a good mum… it’s ...

Sorry I’m new to all of this, I’m being tested Friday for GD but with a blood test instead. They’ve said I’ll have to take tablets if I do have it but nothing else, does this require me to prick my finger for blood?

Maybe a silly question! I just know you're supposed to do weeks until 6 months and months after that? So at what point is my baby 6 months 😂. If you plan to start solids at 6 months would you do 24 weeks or 6 months???

hey , what week did everyone start buying baby things? I’m still really early but just want to know when to start getting prepared?🫣

Is my baby 6 months at 24 weeks? Or should I wait until the date of the month he was born? Basically he was born on the 29th of May so is he 6 months on the 13th of November or 29th of November? Trying to work out when to start weaning and when he should go in his own room.

Tell me how well your 28-29 weekers are doing, please. ❤️

I’m a little on the fence of taking this medication during pregnancy to prevent the risk of psychosis I’d rather take it to ensure no psychosis. But it makes me “out of it” and more tired plus causes weight gain. The dr said it was safe for baby but is it really?

When did you first go my app says I’m 5 weeks (due June 30) appt scheduled next week on Tuesday. Is that too soon?

When would you announce your pregnancy to a seven year old?

Can’t tell if I can see a vvfl on the top test, an indent line, or maybe I’m just seeing things. Please help!
